The House of Cross
by James Patterson
Supreme Court candidates are being murdered—and only Alex Cross and John Sampson can take the case in The House of Cross.
“[Alex Cross’s] innate nature is to protect people…If he has a weakness, it’s his family, especially his children. They’re the chink in his armor. But aside from that, it’s tough to get at him.”
–Aldis Hodge, star of Cross on Prime Video
In Washington, DC, the president-elect is planning her inauguration.
The list of Supreme Court candidates is highly confidential—until it becomes evidence in Detective Alex Cross’s toughest investigation.
One candidate is gunned down. A second is stabbed. A third is murdered near midnight on a city street.
Cross is the FBI’s top expert in criminal behavior. For the sake of his family, his city, and his country, he must put himself in the most dangerous place there is: inside the mind of a diabolical killer.
Robert B. Parker's Hot Property
by Mike Lupica
Spenser investigates a case that hits dangerously close to home in this latest installment of Robert B. Parker’s beloved series.
Spenser is waiting out the latest Boston snowstorm when he gets word that Rita Fiore has been shot. Rita’s always been a tricky one: flirting with Spenser for years, she’s an ever-present figure that transcends friendship in Spenser’s circle. But at the end of the day, Rita is family. And family will always be protected.
Both a pit bull in the courtroom and provocateur outside it, Rita is no stranger to controversy. But as one of the city’s toughest lawyers, Spenser knows that there’s no short list of suspects who might want to enact revenge. With Rita’s life hanging in the balance, it’s up to him to get to the bottom of things, even if it means unearthing some unsavory secrets that might just lead him into an age-old game of lies and deceit.
